Hide AdStephen Moody, a mortgage and protection adviser and OLM dad, told The Extra: “With help from Mrs Commungs and the children on the eco committee, we planted fruit trees around the playground, did a general tidy up of the chestnut garden which was looking a bit worse for wear after the high winds of winter, and dug up an allotment space provided by the council for the children to plant potatoes.
“It was a great experience — thankfully the weather was kind to us and the school were delighted in what we managed to achieve in one day.”
